Kartik Aaryan is undoubtedly one of Bollywood's most bankable actors these days. With his back-to-back line-up of big-budget films, swanky cars, and dapper looks, the actor has been staying in the limelight for a long time now. Needless to say, Kartik also enjoys a massive female fan following and has become a youth icon for many.
However, things did not go so smoothly from day one for the actor. Being a complete outsider in the Hindi film industry, Kartik had to pave his way out to be in the league of top actors. And obviously, the journey has been more of downs than ups, rejections and many other struggles. Recalling his initial phase as a struggling actor in an interview with NDTV Goodtimes, Kartik revealed how often his films would get scrapped and how he was told never to tell anyone about the failure. In his words:
“Mere saath aesa bhi hua hai ki jo ek aadh film jo main almost lock hogaya hun aur, before my debut also, lekin it didn't take off. Aur maine pure jahaan mein bata diya tha ki meri film hone wali hai and it didn't take offf. Toh uske baad in fact ek bohut sahi cheeze maine yeh jaani ki kabhi kisiko batana mat.”
